Weed make even bad music sound so amazing

Weed makes just about everything, in all of existence, more enjoyable. All people, places and things go up a couple of notches on the interesting-o-meter. Colors become brighter. Ben & Jerry’s tastes tastier and is more fun to eat. “Family Guy” becomes that much more hilarious. And yes, even bad music sounds quite a bit better.
The dry college textbook reason for this is that THC binds with cannabinoid receptors in one’s brain, tricking neurons into making one think that happy things are happening that are not in fact happening. The affected brain regions are those that regulate pleasure, time-perception, taste and music criticism, among other things.
But now let’s consider the fact that so-called “bad music” isn’t inherently bad to begin with. Throughout life, we acquire hang-ups. THC can help us see the beauty in things we didn’t even know we could enjoy. And if something subjective, like a song, SEEMS better, doesn’t that mean it IS better? It’s a matter of perception. If we get pleasure out of a work of art, then that’s all there is to it. There’s no need for further examination. The art has fulfilled its purpose. The overall amount of happiness floating around in the ether is greater than it would have been otherwise.

I’m not too sure about weed.
I feel that hypnosis is a wonderful way to stop smoking. However, it only helps very few. Many people don’t believe it works and enter the process with this mind-set is not helpful. They feel if its not a sugar pill or something then it won’t work.
Also, I am such a supporter of the e-cigarette. I think it is one of the greatest inventions ever. Not only is it cheaper than smoking regular cigarettes but also so so much healthier. So many benefits.
